I'm looking to upgrade and would prefer a USCG approved jacket. What is the most comfortable, flexible...? Not wanting to bash on any just want what is the best for you.

I have really liked the Body Glove Eco vest. It is USCG approved, really comfy, and made of environmentally friendly materials. Check it out.

I had an O'neill Law last year but I prefer the new Helium S.W.A.T. USCG approved. Fits better and is more comfortable.

Jetpilot Full Metal Jacket by far and away the best CGA I've owned.

I've got an 07 LF Hinge. CGA, so I could use it when riding my jetski. Plenty of mobility, and it allows give when you hit the water hard. I live by some cliffs on my lake and dive off them regularly over the summer so it's perfect for that. It's all opinion though, so if you can, go to a boardshop and try one on and see how it feels. I had to order online because my local boardshop doesn't have my size in anything, but yeah. Good luck.
